Ongentheow

Ongentheow was the King of the Swedes until 515, succeeding Aun and preceding Ohthere. Also known as Egil Vendelcrow, Ongentheow was a fearsome warrior who slew King Haethcyn of the Geats in 514 at Hrefnesholt after Haethcyn kidnapped a Swedish queen. However, Hygelac would arrive with Geatish reinforcements and repel Ongentheow's army, and Hygelac invaded Sweden. The warriors Eofor and Wulf Wonreding teamed up against Ongentheow, slaying him in battle.
